簡介目錄

玻璃產業矽砂市場預計在預測期內(2024-2029年)複合年成長率為8.24%。

玻璃生產需要二氧化矽。矽砂富含二氧化矽和二氧化矽,是玻璃製造的重要原料。然而,並不是所有的砂資源都可以用於玻璃生產,現實更加嚴峻:每年使用的500億噸砂中,只有1%適合玻璃生產。

所使用的矽砂決定了玻璃的質量,包括其耐用性、強度和透明度。在製造汽車擋風玻璃等產品時,僅使用優質矽砂非常重要。該玻璃符合汽車擋風玻璃的最高視覺標準。

選擇用於玻璃製造的矽砂時要考慮的另一個重點是化學性質,化學性質根據瓶子的類型而變化。例如,牛奶瓶和伏特加酒瓶是無色透明的,沒有綠色調。啤酒瓶有棕色或綠色兩種,棕色玻璃可以更好地防止紫外線傷害。嚴格控制氧化鐵、鉻、鋯石和金屬(包括氧化鋁)的含量,以確保矽砂符合玻璃製造商和最終客戶的標準和期望。

玻璃產業矽砂市場促進因素:

  • 由於矽砂用於汽車玻璃製造,汽車工業已成為矽砂的主要用戶。全球汽車產量的增加,特別是新興國家的汽車產量的增加,是一個主要的動力。隨著印度、中國、巴西等國家經濟的快速成長,汽車流通量不斷增加,對玻璃零件的需求也不斷增加。

簡介目錄
Product Code: KSI061617056

The global silica sand market for the glass industry is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 8.24% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Silicon dioxide is required for glass manufacture. Silica sand, rich in silica or silicon dioxide, is a vital raw material in glass manufacturing. However, not all sand resources can be considered usable for the manufacture of glass, and the reality is even bleaker: Only 1% of the 50 billion tons of sand used every year is considered fit for glass manufacture.

The silica sand used dictates the quality of the glass in terms of durability, strength, and clarity. It is crucial to utilize only high-quality silica sand when manufacturing items like car windscreens. This glass fulfills the best vision standards for automobile windscreens.

Another important consideration when selecting silica sand for glassmaking is its chemistry, which varies depending on the kind of bottle. Milk and vodka bottles, for example, are colorless and free of green tinges. Beer bottles are often brown or green, with brown glass providing better protection against UV radiation damage. The levels of iron oxide, chrome, zircon, and metals (including alumina) are closely managed to guarantee that the silica sand satisfies the criteria and expectations of both the glassmaker and the end customer.

GLOBAL SILICA SAND MARKET FOR GLASS INDUSTRY DRIVERS:

  • The automobile sector has emerged as a large user of silica sand, owing to its use in manufacturing vehicle glass. The global increase in car manufacturing, particularly in emerging nations, has been a significant driver. With fast economic growth in countries like India, China, and Brazil, automobile circulation has grown, and therefore, the need for glass parts has increased equally.

Thus, the German manufacturers of automobiles fabricated more than 15 million units, according to the GTAI (Germany Trade & Invest), in 2021. More than 3.1 million passenger cars and 3,51,000 units come from commercial automobiles assembled in Germany's manufacturing industries in 2021, which shows that Germany is Europe's largest automotive manufacturing industry. Nonetheless, in fiscal year 2024, India produced 2,84,34,742 units of passenger vehicles, CVs, three-wheelers, two-wheelers & Quadricycle, as per the India Brand Equity Fund.

In addition, it can also be averred that as automobiles have become complex, the proportion of the glass in a car has also risen. Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) are still based primarily on cameras and sensors, among which there are often glass parts. Moreover, as is seen in current car designs, larger glass portions are also used for looks and to drive visibility.

Furthermore, even though the EV segment is relatively new, it relates to the indirect use of silica sand. Hence, when EV manufacturing rises, so does the requirement for conventional vehicles, which in turn benefits silica sand in the automotive glass sector. China continues to dominate the manufacture and sales of electric (and fuel cell) trucks and buses. In 2022, 54,000 new electric buses and 52,000 electric medium- and heavy-duty trucks were sold in China, accounting for 18% and 4% of its overall sales and about 80% and 85% of global sales, respectively.

Comprehensively, silica sand is in high demand in the glass replacement aftermarket. Accidents, vandalism, and normal wear and tear contribute to the growth of the glass repair and replacement business.

  • Technological innovations are considerably propelling the silica sand market for the glass sector. Thus, the modern glass-making process demands material like silica sand that has to be of extremely high purity, uniformly fine-grained, and precise chemistries concerning the glass formula. Currently, the process of producing glass at AGC consumes minimum energy due to new fashionable technology and privileges from Industry 4.0. AGC Glass has achieved unparalleled insulation and solar control performance levels while continuously improving methods to link people. Furthermore, the industry's growing emphasis on energy efficiency needs silica sand, which may improve glass production processes while reducing environmental effects.

Moreover, the development of new finished goods in the glass industry, such as self-cleaning glass and energy-conserving glazing, calls for silica sand with certain characteristics. Both of these specialized glass varieties need good-quality silica sand to achieve the right performance characteristics.

GLOBAL SILICA SAND MARKET FOR GLASS INDUSTRY SEGMENT ANALYSIS:

  • In terms of the end-use industry, the construction industry is anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing segments in the market.

The construction sector is undergoing a global boom, which is a main driver of the silica sand market. Several interrelated factors fuel this fast expansion. For instance, urbanization and population expansion are significant causes. As cities grow in size and population density, so does the need for housing and commercial space. This results in a spike in construction activity. Investing in Canada's infrastructure program is one of the ways the government supports various sectors. Moreover, the program also deals with strong, sustainable, and diverse communities for Canadian people and the availability of better, reliable, and updated services to make people's lives easier. The program funds are about USD 33 billion and have been received through two-party deals between Housing, Infrastructure, and Communities Canada and every province and territory. Concurrently, the construction of strong infrastructure, such as transportation networks, hospitals, schools, and public buildings, demands large amounts of concrete and glass, which are largely reliant on silica sand.

Government actions also have an important influence. Infrastructure development initiatives, affordable housing policies, and government subsidies all greatly boost building activity. Furthermore, globalization, which includes increased foreign direct investment in real estate and infrastructure projects, contributes to the overall expansion of the construction industry. In line with this, government statistics from the US Census Bureau presented permit data for April 2024, which included a total permit of 14,40,000 and the completion of 16,23,000 for new residential constructions. To summarise, combining urbanization, population increase, economic expansion, government backing, and globalization has resulted in strong and continuous demand for building materials such as silica sand.

  • Asia Pacific's Silica sand market for the glass industry is anticipated to grow significantly.

This industrial expansion generates enormous demand for glass in various industries, including construction, automotive, and electronics. Moreover, China's 14th Five-Year Plan focuses on new infrastructure projects in transportation, energy, water systems, and urbanization. According to projections, the total investment in new infrastructure during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025) will be over 27 trillion yuan (USD 4.2 trillion).

Moreover, according to the Shanghai Municipal People's Government data, the retail sales of China's consumer electronics were USD 305 billion in 2023, with a 4% growth rate, and in 2024, the rate rose to 5%.

Secondly, Asia Pacific's construction sector is expanding due to urbanization, increased disposable incomes, and large government infrastructure projects. This increase in construction activity raises demand for glass goods, hence increasing silica sand usage. Furthermore, the automotive sector in nations such as India and China is rapidly increasing, resulting in an increased need for glass components in automobiles. Similarly, as per the statistics gathered from the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), organizations considering vehicle manufacturing in India for both passengers and commercial vehicles reached 23.90 million for the financial year 2023.

Furthermore, the region's growing emphasis on renewable energy, notably solar power, is pushing demand for silica sand, which is used in solar panel manufacture. Government policies encouraging industrial growth and infrastructure projects offer an enabling environment for the silica sand industry to thrive.
